Born today, you are a quietly powerful individual with a great deal of charisma and natural charm, which you know how to use to the best possible advantage in almost all situations -- and indeed, there may actually be times when you risk using it too much and turning others against you simply because your seeming manipulation rubs them the wrong way. This is a balance you must always strive for in your daily life. You are quite opinionated, however, and when you are faced with someone who is opposed to your views, you can become defensive -- and aggressive, too.
You have many talents that are likely to bring you into contact with others again and again in a professional setting, but you don’t always enjoy the social aspects of work. Indeed, you like to keep your professional activities and your private life quite separate -- for your own good, and the good of those with whom you interact.
Also born on this date are: Jack Nicholson, actor; Marshawn Lynch, football player; Amber Heard, actress; Peter Frampton, singer and musician; Glen Campbell, singer and songwriter; Jeffrey Dean Morgan, actor; Cassidy Freeman, actress.

TUESDAY, APRIL 23
ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- There’s no reason to be modest today about that which you consider to be a triumph -- but not everyone will agree that the contest is over.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- You’re likely in something of an adventurous mood today, but take care you don’t interpret outright danger as mere adventure or excitement.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- It’s a good day to learn about peripheral issues. The more you familiarize yourself with what someone else does on a routine basis, the better.
CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- Emotional preparedness is essential today, as you’re likely to face a situation that challenges your ability to remain on an even keel.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- Your feelings and beliefs needn’t change today simply because someone else feels or believes something different. By all means, remain firm!
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- You’re not going to avoid all risk today, but you can minimize it surely by doing certain things only for so long. Do not tempt fate!
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) -- What you’re after may not be available to you or within reach as the day begins, but that distance can surely be closed by day’s end.
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) -- Focusing on your needs today will give you the confidence required to face a certain tricky situation. Your individuality matters!
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) -- You can score a major accomplishment today -- or at least make preparations necessary to do so tomorrow. You must keep moving forward!
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- Despite the admiration you get from a certain group of people, you’re still going to have to work to win over others -- but you know how.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) -- An honest assessment of your own abilities will include, of course, the recognition of where you fall short. This is beneficial, certainly!
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) -- Now is not the time to advertise family matters to others. Keep them to yourself for the time being, until you know better what’s going on.
